Fake Out Lo Mein

I came across this quick and easy lo mein recipe on Facebook and decided to give it a try—but of course, I couldn’t resist adding my own little twists. The base recipe was simple, flavorful, and perfect for a busy weeknight, but my tweaks gave it an extra punch of flavor and texture. With tender noodles, crisp veggies, and a savory-sweet sauce that comes together in minutes, this dish is now a go-to in my kitchen. Best of all, it’s ready in under 20 minutes and tastes even better than takeout!
